Cannot unlink incorrect email link

Under Action items:
Reminder: Workday Impacted Systems Session in April

Workday@Yale” automatically shows up as an email link-probably b/c of the ‘@’ sign. However, I cannot remove the link, b/c the remove link icon is grayed out on my content tool bar.

Appreciate any wisdom you can share with this!
Many thanks,

Hello Katherine,

There is a functionality in the CKEditor module which the WYSIWYG toolbar is part of that will automatically turn emails into link. That is converting workday@yale into a link. This can be turned off in Configuration > Content Authoring > Text Formats but it will do so for all content which uses the Filtered HTML format. A workaround could be to put a space after the @ symbol, this should break it up and remove the link.
